When I go into "show book" after building a GM book in Crafty, I don't see that.
 I agree, I would like see it - but I don't.   I think the big book.c
influnences the books.bin when you don't mark the moves in books.bin -- and
marking all the moves with ! in books.bin makes them all equal -- that is my
guess.  So you then need {play nn%}. The only time you don't need play {nn%) is
when when one move is marked.
